CROPS DOING WELL
Not Damaged by Cold Spell
Last Month,
SOIL IS IN FINE CONDITION
Work in Hop-Yards and Orciards
i Actively Pushed Snowfall Is
" Only Half That of
Former Years.
The craps ta ell parts of Oregon are In ex
cellent condition. The February report of "the
Weather Bureau, which waa Issued yesterday,
says:
The coideit weather of the "Winter occurred
during the first naif of tae month, during
"which time temperatures considerably below
zero prevailed In the Eastern part of the
siatc, while wct of the Caseade Mountains
they ranged "between. 15 and 20 degrees below
the freezing point. The latter part of the
month was warmer than usual.' and there were
several periods of warni, sunshiny -weather.
The precipitation, while deficient In all sec
tions, came at opportune tlraes. and was of
great benefit.
In the Grand Ronde Valley Fall wheat was
covered with rnov, and thus protected from
iie effect of the coM. frosty weather, but In
the Columbia and Willamette Valleys and in
Southern Oregon, the ground was bare, and
much apprehension was felt for the safety of
Fall i own grain. Jtiter developments demon
ol'ateo, however, that wheat, rye and al
awe through the cold weaitir practically un
injured, and at the close of the month It was
he opinion of correspondents that the condi
tion of all Fall-sown grain was unusually
promising.
The &hwers and mild temperatures started
R.-ars In the meadows and pastures, and ren
dered the wil in excellent condition for plow
ing and seeding. Work In the hopyards and
orchards was actively pushed. Buds began
19 stMU. and in sections of Southern. Oregon
early peeehea and almonde were In full bloom
at tlie. close of the month..
Pastures continued short, and stock. was thin
In consequence. Where there was plenty of
hay for feeding, cattle Improved somewhat.
Lambing commenced during the last decade,
w'th generally satisfactory results.
The month ef February closed with much
lets than the usual amount of snow in the
mountains of Oregon, according to reports
received from about 50 Postmasters having of
fices favorably situated for obtaining Informa
tion of this character. The deficiency la very
evenly divided, and appears to be about the
came in all sections. AH correspondents agree
that the amount of mow this year Is much
less than at the same time last year, and about
one-half as much aa that of former years.
- PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain, Flour, Feed, Etc,
The local wheat market Is dull -and almost
featureless. The permission granted by the
Illinois Warehouse Commission to deliver Ore
gon red wheat on contracts on the Chicago
Board of Trade has no effect on the situation
here, for the reason that there Is but a small
quantity not to exceed 500,000 bushels of this
"wheat remaining unsold In the- Northwest. The
holders, moreover, have held on tightly, antici
pating tiuch action, and are in no mood now to
let go, except at enhanced values. -There is
no Eastern demand at present for club or blue-
stem, and the weaker tone of the California
markets also precludes shipping to that quar
ter Prices are, therefore, almost nominal.

CHECKS RISING TENDENCY
REALIZING SALES OVERWEIGHT
STOCK-MARKET.
Urgent Selling Pressure Only at the
High Level Brokers Fear Pas
sage cf Transfer Tax Law.
NEW TORK, Mareh 14. ReaHring sales out
weighed the stock marked today and checked
the rising tendency, but there were persistent
revivals of speculative advances here, and
there In the list which "kept up the tone of the
market and gave it resisting power. The
"urgent selling pressure was only at the high
level, and with the yielding of prices the vol
ume of offerings decreased to Ineffective pro
portions. Credulity was rather severely taxed in some
of the reports whlah have Inspired the rise In
special stocks, owing to the entire lack of au
thoritative confirmation. In fact, inquiries
In official quarters to secure light on the re
ports which hare made up the body of stock
market Influences for sometime wee met with
such terms as "buncombe" and "humbug."
The profit-taking of the day was absorbed as
utual, and advances renewed at many points.
Some distrust continues to be expressed over
the extent of the advance, and over the reli
ability of the factors which have caused them
and the high level of priors is regarded with
apprehension In conservative quarters. One
striking evidence of this is the fact that money
"brokers In London, in connection with the cur
rent ctock market settlement there, hesitate
to accept American rails aa collateral secur
ity for largi loans, owing to their fears that
present prices are unstable. Foreign markets
also are inclined to take a depressing view to
day of the immediate outlook for peace. The
bonds of both belRgerent governments were
affected unfavorably by this prospect. 1
A growing Influence, in stock market circles
Is the prospect of the enactment at Albany of
a tax on otock transfers, which It Is feared
would constitute a serious obstruction to a
vcary large proportion of the operations sow
conducted on tho New York Stock Exchange
Much attention Is given in consequence to the
discussion of measures of opposition. The
consideration of the subject held Its part In
causing tho falling ofl of activity in the trad
ing. The $50,000,000 bond Issue by the Pennsyl
vania Railroad was Just half as much as spec
ulative rumor had pointed to. and the move
ment of tho atock Indicated that this modera
tion Ws a disappointment to the holders of
the security. The changes were still running
on the varying rumors of mergers, comrma
tlons and dividend Increase, especially affect
lng the Vanderbilt group. Smelting moved up
again on a revival of lead merger reports.
There were extraordinary movements in some
of the closely held hlgh-pnocd stocks. Lack
awanna rising on trivial buying to 400. The
